John Chan lives and works in Long Beach California. Formally trained in the studio arts with a concentration in drawing and painting, he has transitioned from the painting easel to the computer, creating compositions in the digital realm. Some works reference traditional imagery, while others are purely digital in nature. His interests are deeply rooted in the natural world and its inner workings. It is in this mindset that he explores the possibilities and intricacies of nature, seeking understanding of the patterns and systems, striving to reveal the beauty of its design. At times the resulting effort renders austere images, and at other times, playful whimsical propositions. Although part of him is still drawn to the traditional mediums, the digital workspace provides the chance to explore multiple permutations in real time that are unavailable with other mediums.
